TRANSVAAL WOLMARAN 1900 SG5 Cover

1900 (24 June) 3d purple and green, type L3 opt in blue, a very fine example tied to censored cover (with 'LEASK' imprint on flap) by violet double-ring cds (with Z.A.R. partially removed at foot) on first day of issue, locally addressed in Leask's handwriting to his daughter Josephine ('J.A.'), and endorsed 'C G Huddleston/Asst Comm' at lower left. Choice quality and very rare, with probably only about 20 of this value overprinted. Illustrated on p.38 of the book by Birkhead and Groenewald.
